I knew Barnes quit making my favorite 416 bullet the 325 gr x bullet .They also quit making the 350 gr x bullet for the tripple shock bullets.They increased about $16 a box doing this.I wish I could find some more 325 gr x bullets for my .416 its likes them best .I shot alot of groups under 1" at 2800 fps .It does not like the 300 gr .416 bullets near as good.

They either pulled them for lack of sales, or they're going to release something else in its place.

Have you called them to express your displeasure?

The 325 grain was Randy Brookes favorite 416 bullet,but they stopped making them because of a lack of sales

Looking at your bullet weight selection, you might consider an upgrade to .375H&H. Just bought a box of Fed 'Cape Shok' 300gr TB 'Sledgehammers' for $56, what would a box of cheapest .416 cost?

I agree, the 325 gr. X was my favorite bullet for the Rigby and elk hunting. Do what I did, and EMAIL Barnes telling them that you would like to see the 325 X brought back into production.
